The Substance of the Suspicions

According to the investigators’ account, the mayor and the CEO acted for the benefit of individuals who provided bribes, mostly in cash. They are suspected of having helped those individuals win several large and significant tenders, with the exceptionally active involvement of the mayor’s wife. The report did not name the other suspects or specify the amounts of the alleged bribes.

What the Court Decided

The Rishon LeZion Magistrate’s Court released Sagi Hen and placed him under house arrest for six days. The source did not mention additional restrictions or the legal basis for the decision.

The Defense’s Position

Hen’s attorneys argued that there is no testimony or other evidence proving that he received a bribe. The report concerns the investigative stage and does not indicate that an indictment has been filed or that anyone has been convicted.

What this means for you

House arrest during the investigative stage is a restrictive measure, not a sentence, and does not in itself establish guilt. For a person in a similar situation, the specific conditions of house arrest are set by a judicial decision; this report does not detail those conditions, apart from the six-day duration.
